(trilema) mike_c: so why the hell would you be pushing their shitty methodology?
(trilema) mike_c: most = what? > 90%? > 99%?
(trilema) mike_c: xmj: what percentage of these companies fail?
(trilema) mike_c: hehe. i think we are talking about limits on freedom. you think people should be free to be racist/homophobic. i'm not sure i agree.
(trilema) mike_c: sure, like you left some space for romanians by leaving. you also wrote a blog post telling them they suck on the way out.
(trilema) mike_c: "i'm not god, so whatever"
(trilema) mike_c: what's the other option? you don't get to assign meaning to anything?
(trilema) mike_c: bad analogy. killing rats and/or manuls means nothing.
(trilema) mike_c: sure, i can't count it. but fuck those 20 guys who did it for dumb reasons too.
(trilema) mike_c: that doesn't mean there was no meaning to any of it.
(trilema) mike_c: 100 people go lynch a black guy. yes, 20 of them only did it because of peer pressure, but 80 of them did do it because they hate/fear/whatever blacks.
(trilema) mike_c: but there often is meaning. flag burning is dumb. but refusing service based on race/gay/sex does have meaning.
(trilema) mike_c: so what's your point? that I shouldn't care about other people's idiocy? or is it that it isn't stupid to be racist/homophobic.
(trilema) mike_c: perhaps this is inconsistent.
(trilema) mike_c: some people "hate americans" and act accordingly. I think this is retarded, but it doesn't upset me. some people "hate homos" and act accordingly, yet this does upset me.
(trilema) mike_c: thinking..
(trilema) mike_c: not part of objects, part of behavior.
(trilema) mike_c: well, relatively serious. is there some other reason you would refuse to use black figurines?
(trilema) mike_c: you assholes got my bp up. who needs coffee.
(trilema) mike_c: because then you end up with half your country owning slaves.
(trilema) mike_c: "so what" is that a lot of people don't find racism/sexism/homophobia something to simply be ignored.
(trilema) mike_c: danielpbarron: you are trying to be cute with the rules, but that is just bullshit. why do you have the rule against black figurines? because you hate blacks.
(trilema) mike_c: is discrimination illegal? generally, yes.
(trilema) mike_c: danielpbarron: you going to have a rule against black figurines on your cakes too?
(trilema) mike_c: yeah, so?
(trilema) mike_c: meh, i don't think it works irl. just make the guy a cake. wtf does the baker care? you don't go to hell for making gay cakes.
(trilema) mike_c: and why are you changing the rate? because the guy is gay? doesn't work.
(trilema) mike_c: that doesn't work for a bakery. you can't serve 10 customers cake and then tell the black guy "this isn't a good deal for me".
(trilema) mike_c: this cracks me up. hipster lorem ipsum: http://hipsum.co/?paras=4&type=hipster-centric
(trilema) mike_c: not only is some dumbass trying to bet after the event, but he bets a whopping 20 cents.
(trilema) mike_c: tangible assets are always overstated in value though

(trilema) mike_c: not to mention more than existed at the time.
(trilema) mike_c: reporters are awesome (present company not included in sarcasm of course)
(trilema) mike_c: you missed the one from financial times that said SD raised *10 million* btc in their ipo
(trilema) mike_c: capex counts against income, no?
(trilema) mike_c: well, they are talking about cash flow not balance sheet, so capex i guess
(trilema) mike_c: salaries!
(trilema) mike_c: company parties are expensive.
(trilema) mike_c: because you can just ignore depreciation, especially in a mining operation.
(trilema) mike_c: drives me crazy when someone says "well the other startups are doing it"
(trilema) mike_c: i would post that on my wall, but then everyone would just ask me "who is mircea"
(trilema) mike_c: hehe. you mean the nsa recommended ones?
(trilema) mike_c: i hate cloudflare as much as everyone, but this is actually a really useful primer on RSA and EC if you are new to the details of how they work:
(trilema) mike_c: Phinnaeus: bingo linked you to a good post on the point of it all earlier. worth reading if you're thinking of hanging out here: http://trilema.com/2014/bitcoin-assets-m/
(trilema) mike_c: asciilifeform: do you know if this is true? "EC-based keys are just as secure as RSA keypairs"
(trilema) mike_c: line between a marketer and a spammer is thin.
(trilema) mike_c: damn, jd had a good day.
(trilema) mike_c: it's like democracy. the worst except for the alternatives.
(trilema) mike_c: i saw that earlier. cracks me up :)
(trilema) mike_c: ;;google rectothermal cryptanalysis
(trilema) mike_c: it's funny how many google queries lead back to stan
(trilema) mike_c: nobody would have been able to play :)
(trilema) mike_c: that is still impossible. that would have been, what, ALL the btc?
(trilema) mike_c: yours has nicer fonts though.
(trilema) mike_c: ^ ft article
(trilema) mike_c: would not rectothermal analysis provide the location of the stored key?
(trilema) mike_c: x.idiff.jun could be at management's discretion.. next diff bump may well be on settlement day.
(trilema) mike_c: it is truly amazing how it keeps doubling
(trilema) mike_c: big spike in nethash last couple hundred blocks
(trilema) mike_c: yes, but he won't admit to it (pankkake)
(trilema) mike_c: Altcoin is the best altcoin because the core dev hates altcoins.
(trilema) mike_c: was that from pankkake?
(trilema) mike_c: he didn't even have to kick in for the fine.
(trilema) mike_c: Apocalyptic: is 30day vol no longer available? or maybe it never was and i'm dreaming.
(trilema) mike_c: cool. thanks. didn't there used to be a way to get 30day vol?
(trilema) mike_c: any reason? worried about spam or something?
(trilema) mike_c: hey mod6, how come atcbot won't talk to me in query?
(trilema) mike_c: i don't know why everyone is so worried about women in bitcoin. the number of foreigners in bitcoin seems like a much bigger problem.
(trilema) mike_c: who purported that?
(trilema) mike_c: that must have been a great phone call. "Mr. Voorhees, give us 50 btc and it all goes away". "Uhh, seriously? Ok!"
(trilema) mike_c: that's confusing.
(trilema) mike_c: paging kakobrekla.
(trilema) mike_c: well how the hell are you supposed to know that? it says it's been paid out.
(trilema) mike_c: i don't think you are.
(trilema) mike_c: Mats_cd03: that one has already been paid out..
(trilema) mike_c: Mats_cd03: dunno, but i think less than a day in general.
(trilema) mike_c: artifexd: so where does that leave the shares. owning a share of s.mg on havelock is only worth 50% as much as a share on mpex. crazy, huh. they are way overpricing those havelock shares :)
(trilema) mike_c: but transferring shares off havelock is prohibitively expensive, which is probably why nobody bothers.
(trilema) mike_c: well, i don't need anything. just saying there is arbitrage available between havelock smg passthrough and mpex.
(trilema) mike_c: does nobody in here have a havelol account? i guess it's not worth picking up the bit-dime in arbitrage.
(trilema) mike_c: cost != value :)
(trilema) mike_c: coingen is how Altcoin was born
(trilema) mike_c: well, i'm not looking to reignite that silly argument. "bootstrap lean fail-fast pivot" is a joke.
(trilema) mike_c: xmj:;;rate mircea_popescu -2 has no idea about lean startup strategy << wait, shouldn't that merit a positive rating?
(trilema) mike_c: hm.. all the #b-a blogs should charge the same credits, spend them to read the other blogs, get them when people read your blog. talk about a circle jerk.
(trilema) mike_c: mircea_popescu:im officially addicted to http://www.btcalpha.com/mpif-tracker/ nao << perhaps I should add a credits system :)
(trilema) mike_c: jurov's book would make infinite loop anyway. nav = (pc1,2,3,4) + nav * pc5 shares
(trilema) mike_c: will get even more live when jurov finishes his thing :)
(trilema) mike_c: she won, but it didn't cover the small hedge
(trilema) mike_c: i am recalling. soon gox2 will arise with their stolen code and they can compete on even footing.
(trilema) mike_c: well, where do i send my money!
(trilema) mike_c: "The Bitfinex trading platform is currently in a beta phase (testing phase). The platform is owned and operated by iFinex Inc. (Bvi), and during this final phase the platform is being prepared to operate under a fully licensed model."
(trilema) mike_c: when did bitfinex get so fking big? are they blowing smoke up their own ass?
(trilema) mike_c: back to the moon i guess
(trilema) mike_c: seller identified.
(trilema) mike_c: hmm, how would you know ;)
(trilema) mike_c: mpif question: are those 900k+ shares on the order book new shares?
(trilema) mike_c: couple bit cents down the drain.
(trilema) mike_c: especially with all you foreigners in here.
(trilema) mike_c: what was am ipo price?
(trilema) mike_c: kakobrekla: i'll try it now, thanks. plus bonus swimsuit pic :)
(trilema) mike_c: now, 0.0036 * 630 = $2.27 per share
(trilema) mike_c: ipo = 0.0055 BTC * 600 = $3.30
(trilema) mike_c: those were actually off by a factor of 10, but they all were so it doesn't really matter.
(trilema) mike_c: srsly. he'd be unreadable without their editing
(trilema) mike_c: back to 3.4 th/s. must be pool-hoppers on atc.
(trilema) mike_c: ;;calc 482603*7000000
(trilema) mike_c: i will certainly give it a try.
(trilema) mike_c: i have heard you say that (and filed it away for my future research)
(trilema) mike_c: i used to agree about the readability, but i have recently seen some elegant looking lisp programs. and i used to think python was unreadable. so who knows.
(trilema) mike_c: i'm starting to think it might be that cool. it's on my list to learn when i have a spare minute.. so who knows when.
(trilema) mike_c: Naphex: mtgox would have managed to suck in any language. i just feel bad for good programmers who somehow have ended up using php. probably the same as asciilifeform feels for all of us that don't use lisp.
(trilema) mike_c: well, it was good enough for mtgox i guess.
(trilema) mike_c: kakobrekla: what is bitbet written in?
(trilema) mike_c: pankkake: ipo USD/share: $0.33, 2po: $0.345, current: $0.227
